20  All GUI-based operating systems use a desktop environment. Desktop environments  encompass many things, such as: ◦ The look and feel of your system ◦ The way the desktop is laid out ◦ How the desktop is navigated by the user  In Linux distributions (such as Ubuntu), a number of desktop environments are available. Ubuntu uses Unity as the default desktop environment  This initial view is comprised of the e Desktop Background and two bars—one is horizontally located at the top of your desktop called the Menu Bar, and the other bar is vertically oriented at the far le, called the Launcher.

21  The Menu Bar  The menu bar incorporates common functions used in Ubuntu.  The icons on the far-right of the menu bar are called the indicator area. The most common indicators are (starting from the left)  Keyboard indicator allows you to select the keyboard layout you would like and change your keyboard preferences.  Messaging indicator incorporates all your social applications. From here, you can access your instant messenger client, your email client, your microblogging application, and even UbuntuOne, your personal cloud!  Network indicator allows you to manage your network connections and connect quickly and easily to a wired or wireless network.  Sound indicator provides an easy way to adjust the sound volume as well as access your music player and sound settings.  Clock displays the current time and provides an easy way to access your calendar and Time and Date settings.  User menu allows you to easily switch between different users and access your online and user accounts.  Session indicator provides an easy way to access System Settings, Updates, Printers, and session options for locking your computer, logging out of your session, restarting the computer, or shutting down completely.

22  The vertical bar of icons on the left side of the screen is called the Launcher.  The Launcher provides easy access to applications, mounted devices, and the Trash. All running applications on your system will place an icon in the Launcher while the application is running.  The first icon at the top of the Launcher is the Dash, a major innovation and core element of Unity

23

24  To run an application from the Launcher (or cause an already-running application to appear), just click on the application’s icon.  Running applications will have one or more triangles on the left side of its icon, indicating the number of application windows open for this application.  You can also run an application through the Dash.

25  The Dash is a tool to help you access and find applications and files on your computer quickly.  If you are a Windows user, you’ll find the Dash to be a more advanced Start Menu.  If you are a Mac user, the Dash is similar to Launchpad in the dock.

26

27  Workspaces are also known as virtual desktops.  These separate views of your desktop allow you to group applications together, and by doing so, help to reduce cluster and improve desktop navigation.  For example, in one workspace, you can open all of your media applications; your office suite in another, and your web browser open in a third workspace.  Ubuntu has four workspaces by default.

28  There are numerous ways to install software on an operating system.  In Ubuntu, the quickest and easiest way to find and install new applications is through the Ubuntu Software Center.  The Ubuntu Software Center can be used to install applications that are available in the official Ubuntu repositories
